"INSPIRATION"
"Without bad days, you'd never know what a good one was."

"The door to your HEART only opens from the 'inside'."
Copyright © 1972 Imogene (Jean) Owita Lewis
The quotation is from a poem I wrote, after looking at a picture of Jesus standing at a door, that had no doorknob, with his hand raised to 'knock' on it, and, the artist told someone that the painting had no doorknob because that was the door to your HEART. Every day, in every way, we 'choose' good or evil for each 'moment', therefore; we help or hinder ourselves and others.

The Power of Wisdom

Be Like A Phoenix Always
"Phoenix Bird tells us that whenever you shoot yourself again onto a right path, after the spiral of the failures, you will find the victorious strength in your wings that the ordinary bird, sleeping in it's nest, will never ever be able to even imagine."

This thought is from my personal diary.
"Throughout the centuries there were men who took first steps, down new roads, armed with nothing but their own vision."
Ayn Rand
You walked in my storm just as I thought there was no one left.
You held me up when my own legs could no longer take the pressure.
You opened your heart when mine was close to being stone.
You helped me through the rain when I thought I might drown.
You cared when you didn't have to,
You smiled when you knew I needed it,
And you opened my eyes to what happiness can be, when I was blinded by pain.
You walked into my storm and cleared the sky.

Whenever I am feeling down I think about the person that I wrote this poem about and it brings up my spirits! Everyone has at least one storm of their own and I hope they have someone there to support them like I did.
"True happiness is walking the darkest road in life, alone with a smile."

I came up with theses words through experience. I once read some articles of Helen Keller, about true happiness and only through my own journey could I really find the meaning of True Happiness to me. I realized that I'm the only person who can make ME happy. Thank you for a great website and the inspiration.
What happens when you lose a dream?
A dream that you've built your life around...
What happens when you go from the top of the world,
To rock bottom?
When you go from being the very best,
To barely surviving.
What happens then?
You learn to go on
That's what happens.
Things change and you take it day by day
Knowing that there is something better for you out there.

"Treat every day like a gift. Unwrap it and then wrap your arms around it; it will surprise and intrigue you."
Written in 2005 by N. Elchibini --- Quebec, Canada
Something simple like this, can change your day.
Something simple like this, can change your way.
It's in your heart, not your mind.
It's something good inside you'll find.
Don't forget who you are.
Don't forget you're his shining star.
Here's one word of faith I'd like to say,
